Top 50 Gluten-Free Vegan Havens Across New Mexico

Dan Noyes

Our last visit to this restaurant was like the first-the food is fresh and delicious. The service is first rate.A big attraction for us is the gluten free menu and the calamari was delicious with a really great sauce. The lasagna was equally good, as always. And the seafood special was full of surprises and very very tasty. The bread is always marvelous. The soup is heavenly-seasoned just right and most excellent. Our server TJ was helpful and explained the dinner options and had great wine recommendations. It is the kind of superb service we are used to. Paisano's ambiance is understated elegance. We have been enjoying Paisano's for nearly 20 years. It is an exceptional restaurant and that keeps us coming back year after year.

This is one of my favorite restaurants ever. It’s heaven for people who can’t have gluten (and great for those who can - the gluten free items taste excellent for non-gf standards too). The pesto chicken sandwich is a dream, and with gf tres leches cake being a rare find, I make this place a priority every time I’m in Santa Fe. Great staff too. Highly recommended!

Delicious. Great service. Dedicated gluten free options

De Brown

Excellent place for gluten free bakery items!

My sister has celiac and I have always hated gf food. But the cinnamon rolls are great and taste maybe even better than the gluten-ful counterpart. My sister was kinda sad that they didn't have any iced coffees but besides that this is a great stop.

Food is extremely healthy though what you see online is not necessarily what is available in person. At the time we went, there was supposedly something going on with the oven to where staff was having to cook one gluten-free pita at a time and the waitress compared the experience of waiting for our orders to waiting for water to boil. The ingredients for extremely fresh, for sure. Most of the meals, savory. But it was very expensive. My husband ordered his buffalo burger on the rare side (it needs to be undercooked not to overdry) and it came out medium well, very dry and with some grizzle in it, to boot. The waitress apologized and immediately offered to get a new one made. She said the burger would be compted but then clarified that the new burger would be comped (you were seriously going to charge for getting the order right?). Overall, decent healthy food but very expensive.

Almost all foods are gluten free!!

Worth the wait! Great place for the gluten avoidant.

Marina Hein

Can Always count on this place for delicious gluten-free food. Sometimes staff are weirdly unfriendly, but from reading other reviews it sounds like they’re just doing their best in what sounds like a toxic place to work. I would also be a downer if the stories here and on Reddit about working here are true. So great food but make sure to tip your server if you go!!

Nathan and Mekala know exactly how to provide top-notch customer service along with their entire staff and not to mention the food is delicious, with healthy ingredients. I've ordered the vegan poke bowl, which is perfect on a hot summer day. I'm not vegan and ate every last morsel. I've also ordered the Gone Fishin' bowl, which contains a perfectly cooked salmon portion, coconut rice, mixed greens, local mushrooms, herby cucumbers, pickled onions, sautéed corn, sesame ponzu, green onions, and everything seasoning. Whatever you are in the mood for at la finca, you and your palate will not be disappointed. I love that this restaurant sources from local places with their produce and is a 100% gluten-free kitchen. They are vegetarian/vegan friendly, dietary sensitive, and sustainability focused. I will continue to support this local restaurant and hope that you will enjoy it just as much as I do. La finca, thank you for making quality bowls with quality ingredients. *****A bonus is that they sell two stoned Betties hand crafted jewelry at their cash register. I couldn't help myself and bought a gorgeous pair of earrings that were calling my name. The earrings I bought are hypo-allergenic hand painted guitar picks with the New Mexico Zia symbols painted on them along with a roadrunner and heart-shaped zia charm on the ends. Supporting local means so much to me because my husband and I own PT First Physical therapy clinic in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Have a blessed day, y'all!

I always enjoy my experience and meal at Grassburger. They have the best gluten free burgers and fries in town!

My wife and kid live this pizza. Dude was cool and understood the unique instructions from my fam. A vegan pizza with little sauce and heavy in the vegan cheese. And a gluten free vegan pizza also. They loved the pizzas. So that's Kool

Beat gluten free bread. The hot soup and sandwich lunch was scrumptious. I got a few pastries to take home and they were just okay.

Patricia Valderrama

The Bandeja Paisa and chicken salad were delicious. Accompanied with fruit juices of Milo and maracuyá. What a treat! Their menu is gluten free and has some vegetarian options.

Jennifer Stroessner

The best place to eat in Santa fe. Make sure you get in line by 4pm for an in person reservation. Many gluten-free options. Almost all the deserts are gluten-free.

Felicia Rodriguez

Best gluten free restaurant!

Diane Cabral

I love the high-quality and good service of this restaurant. The burgers are always on point and grass fed beef makes a huge difference as far as taste and health. The fact that they have gluten-free options makes this place a go to for us. The french fries are delicious so are the sweet potato fries.

Josh Cordon

Not one to go to chains often, especially with certain cuisines, but am I glad I came here! last time I went to a PF Changes it was meh. this place has it DOWN! Food was amazing def making this our goto spot for chinese! and the service was amazing too, server/ Chefs were so nice to help accommodate my Wife's gluten Free needs.

Tetiana Skorykh

The best🎉 vegan restaurant my family and I visited so far in the USA🌞👌🌟. We were passing by Santa Fe and needed to choose a place to eat. Being vegetarians, we always try to find good vegan or vegetarian places to eat. And, after finding this restaurant and seeing some bad reviews that people of Indian origin wrote I knew I would love the place: if they think the food isn't spicy🔥🔥 enough for them it means that people CAN actually eat it and not burn the hole in their stomachs and feel all the flavors and shades of different vegetables and varieties of delicious dishes. I have lived in India, and I can relate. Plus, with us we had a doctor who does some energetic healing 🧘‍♀️🧘 and it was his first experience of eating Vata-Pitta-Kappha balanced food and he said he felt energetically much better after having it (he had some stressfull days prior)- he got the "South Indian Sampler" dish wich is all doshas balansing (the menu said that). Special thank you for your vegan and gluten free sweets: it's really rare find to get that good of the deserts that are tasty and won't give you a diabetic coma :))). Just enough amount of sugar for me❤️ Very friendly and caring personell🤗. Will come again to eat here when visiting this beautiful and vibrant city😎💓🫶💫

Thankfully they have a lot of gluten-free options. That being said, I find it waaay too expensive for the quality and quantity of the food. Great staff. Food was good but nothing special. $48 for Conchinita Pibil. It was flavorful but not worth the money. My husband had a salad with figs and they were soggy. The chicken paillard was good , but $47. I get in NYC from an excellent place for $28. Food is fine. Service is great. Cilantro rice is flavorful. We have eaten great food on our trip here in NM in Albuquerque and Taos and paid nothing near this. My son had a$20 Papusa. One single papusa. Nope.

Tanya Ortiz

If you have to order gluten free, I wouldn’t recommend this pizza. Overpriced at $30.00 for a small gluten free pizza with two toppings. Crust was so soggy, loaded with sauce and clumped on cheese. Was not appetizing. Overall not great experience, long wait only to be told half my order could not be filled then left with a pizza I ended up just tossing. Just warning those with gluten sensitivity, there are better options at other restaurants.

Katie Nixon

My favorite gluten free pizza in Albuquerque! The gf pizzas are different sizes than the gluten pizzas so they don't share pans.

Lois Bradley

Stopped in to try one of their gluten free pizzas and it was fantastic. We have the Taos and the favor was delicious. The crust - gluten-free- was the best I have tried to date. It was crisp with a slightly chewy center. 10 out of 10. And no issues or gluten reaction today. Perfect.

Sarah Sohlberg

Honestly one of the best meals I’ve had in recent years! Almost everything is gluten free!!

Tiana Mcbride

Love this bakery. They have homemade seasonal syrups for their coffee and an amazing selection of gluten free and vegan pastries. They just made a vanilla vegan cake for my friends sons birthday. With cherry filling and a vegan vanilla buttercream. The kids LOVED it!! And it was BEAUTIFUL!!

Sam Fletcher

Awesome place. They have gluten-free and vegan/vegetarian options for my wife and normal food for us regular folks 😁. Will definitely be going back for another date night. The staff was awesome and took time to answer all my wife's questions. Super awesome place.

Pam Kingdon

Even during the busy breakfast/lunch hour we are always seated quickly. There’s an extensive menu with many gluten free options. Food is delicious and wait staff is quick to check on you. Only downside is the noise level. It’s sometimes difficult to carry on a conversation in certain parts of the restaurant.

Staff were phenomenal at helping us make a friend's birthday special! Our group had vegans, vegetarians, and people with food allergies (in addition to a couple of meat and potatoes folks) and our waiter was able to make recommendations that left everyone's needs met and our palate's satisfied. I have anaphylactic food allergies, and tend to avoid going out to eat (nothing ruins a date night faster than an ambulance ride to the ER). I called beforehand to find out if there were any dishes I could safely eat (there was) and the manager asked me to still let the waiter know about my food allergies before ordering. Staff were pleasantly surprised by my service dog remaining invisible, even after a gentleman walked by with his "service dog" that barked and lunged under my chair. The tables are a little close together for easy wheelchair use, I wouldn't go when I'm having a POTS flare, despite the tables being the correct height for my chair. If you are a wheelchair user, I would recommend calling ahead and making a reservation, and requesting a table that is easily accessible (and not need to go beyond the cloth covered booths). The format of the tables does make it very easy for properly trained service dogs to tuck under the tables and remain invisible to patrons and out of the way of staff...even my mastiff/lab cross was easily able to tuck under the table and minimally impact the person seated across from me (they just had to be mindful to not kick her, they said she was completely out of their way). The food was so good, and kitchen staff did such an amazing job at not permitting cross contact with my allergens, Thursday night may have been my first time at Seasons 52, but it definitely won't be my last! Gluten free, dairy free and nightshade fruit free meal!

Kara Lanctot

Well, we started off with dessert! Thankfully Magnolia (Maggie, owner and if she isn't she should be because she cared about our experience from the moment we walked in until we left) picked our dinner options for us (our request and we have no idea what we got but my husband said for like the first time ever that he would come back to the same place again) and made sure we were 100% more than happy - and i was so happy to find out they have gluten-free na'an! Added bonus! I think she could have picked absolutely anything on the menu and it would have been delicious. This place just cares, you'll be in good hands (closes at 8pm so go early).

Kathleen David

Amazing gluten free crepes. So delicious! Coffee is great, atmosphere wonderful.

TK O'Geary

Buffett lunch for nearly 100 people; fresh salad and hot dishes. Nicely done. Several gluten free options (host and others needed gluten free). The room we were in was quite beautiful, fresh, alive. Felt like we were outside in the sun, but we were inside. Service staff were outstanding. Always close by without hovering. Quick service. Food was pretty good. However, the sopaipilla "walls" were quite thick. Almost like a slice of bread was flattened and deep fried. Not very enjoyable. Overall, though, one of my better visits to El Pinto.

This is a commercial bakery with an embedded restaurant. Parking is off street, in front of the bakery. You go through the bakery shop to get to the restaurant. There was not wait when we visited on a weekday morning. We got gluten free blue corn blueberry pancakes with pinions, a side of green chili sausage, and a Mediterranean omelet with smashed breakfast potatoes. The omelet was very tasty, with a healthy portion of feta and kalamata olives. The breakfast potatoes, baked then smashed and fried crispy were the star of the show. The green chili sausage was good but not exceptional. The blue corn pancakes were tasty, with a reasonable portion of pinions on top. Like many gluten free options, they lacked structural integrity. They were almost as good as the equivalent blue corn pinion pancakes at the Flying Tortilla (which are not gluten free). There was a window to the commercial bake ry floor in the dining room where we were seated. We enjoyed watching cinnamon rolls being made during breakfast. It was a little pricey, $50 breakfast for two, but I felt like I got my money's worth.

Fabiola Smith

Really good I have Celiac disease and they have a lot of options

Ariana Solaequi

I absolutely LOVE this restaurant. It’s my favorite place to eat. I also have celiacs disease and almost everything is gluten free! 10/5 stars! Please come to the west side!!

Danielle King

Kimberly Brewster

The gluten free options are clearly marked on the menu, and the food is delicious! The Medium heat level was too spicy for me, but the Mild was just right and very flavorful!

Tim Simoneaux

Great place! Food was delicious and came out promptly. The staff was polite and the atmosphere was great. It's a dog friendly establishment, and they were kind enough to give our dog a bowl of water. They have allergy oriented food and even celiac safe beer, which is pretty cool.

Too Loud Bear The 2nd

Love this place. Always outstanding vegan food. I look forward to more gluten free options in the future so my wife can enjoy more options.

Lior Seidel

Dale Zinn

We quit going when they charged for hot water And lemon but iced water is free.. Most expensive gluten free pizza on the planet

Padric Mccelvey

What a bummer. Messed my wife’s gluten free order up, the online system wouldn’t let us order to save 10% and they wouldn’t honor it in the store (I mean $5 is $5 especially when you’re spending 50$ for one large & one medium pizza right? Even after they made us wait for the rest of our food to get cold since they messed the order up (not us since we were forced to order over the phone and I specified gluten free with allergy) Overall I love this pizza but the gal on shift was less than helpful.

Sara LaMontine

Probably the best gluten free pizza I have ever had! Everyone else enjoyed their food too! Prices are super reasonable, and a wine flight with 5 options for $11!

Heather McReynolds

Pros: The atmosphere is lovely. The space is beautifully decorated, I enjoy the music and the vibe, there is dog friendly outdoor space available also. They have vegan and GF food options if that is your thing. Cons: The service is slow. Generally there is only one person out front, so they have to alternate between taking orders and making drinks, neither of which happens quickly. The coffee is not particularly good - over roasted and bitter. If it were reasonably priced, that might be ok, but it isn't. They *upcharge* for dairy. They only have a few flavors of syrup. One barista (may have been the owner) commented on processed ingredients when I asked for white chocolate. I get living your ethos through your business practices, but I was there for an iced coffee, not a commentary on my lifestyle choices. All of the pastries are gluten free and they taste like they are made of sand - plus expensive. If I pay $5 for a muffin, it better be the best muffin I've ever had in my life. Spoiler alert: it isn't. They don't have cups for iced drinks (I'm assuming because of the plastic aspect), so they put them in the cups for the hot drinks, which get flimsy. So, to summarize...if you are an entitled, gluten free vegan with a lot of spare time and disposable income, and you don't care if your food is edible or your coffee tastes good, this is 100% the place for you. If you, like me, are a dairy-drinking, gluten munching, single use plastic using sinner, I highly recommend Coffee Apothecary for outstandingly delicious coffee with rock solid sourcing practices & environmental ethics and considerate, competent local service. Or Koko for a great drink selection and many delicious food items, healthy or indulgent or both. I don't think I'll be going back. But yeah, save the world by charging for cow's milk, go for it.

I am allergic to gluten and eggs so I had the açaí bowl. It was THE BEST açaí bowl I have ever had and was a huge portion. I can’t wait to go back!!

Alice Langford

Good food pleasant atmosphere and they have a gluten free menu.

Lauren Cordova

The food is AMAZING here! Me and my family always get some empanadas and arepas. The people who work here are also very nice and helpful. Me and my family are gluten free and dairy free and are able to eat the empanadas and arepas!

Debra Vasquez

Thanks for supporting the Make-a- Wish Foundation. I was happy to see you have gluten-free options. 😁
